Having problems with your Aiptek MPVR Digital Camera ?

Mpvr troubleshoot I have had the mpvr for two months and it has worked fine but i noticed after the last time i charged the battery and turned it on, it brought up the title screen and would go to a black screen as if a lens cap would be on or something. anyways after about ten seconds it will automatically turn off. another thing i noticed is it won't turn on auto when you flip the screen open but that you have to manually push the button open.

Answers :

I own a DV6800 (european version).\015\012\015\012for the first problem- looks like a weak battery. When the camera was delivered to me, it came with a bad battery and I had it replaced.\015\012\015\012for the second problem- there is a magnetic reed switch inside the camera and there is a magnet inside the LCD screen. The magnet activates the switch. If it is not turning on automatically then the switch is defective.\015\012\015\012\015\012Or- there is a possiblity that the two failures are related, meaning that the reed switch is only activating for a moment (turning on the power) the after the magnet is not in close proximity (LCD opened), the reed switch will deactivate turning off the unit in 10 seconds.\015\012\015\012I have opend my unit once because somene forced open the LCD in a wrong way. if you plant to diaasemble the unit, the re are screws under the sticker for control labels. You have to remove this sticke first.\015\012\015\012I have my DV6800 since Decemmber 2005

Sony DSC-S600 Sorrry! What happens is this:- Turn camera on,Cybershot screen opens up with musical jingle then it will say "Access" then another screen opens up saying "Turn power off and on again". Sometimes you don't get the "Access" and it will go straight into the "Power off and on again" screen. Tried this - no good. Changed batteries for fully charged brand new 2700mAh NIMH - 1.2V Uniross - still no good ! Any advice would be appreciated. Regards

My Pentax Optio S10 digital camera is giving me problems.
Initially the lens would not extend fully and would then immediately retract and the camera would then turn itself off.
After cleaning the extended lens barrel each time it extended, I found it would open further each time.
It nows extends fully, but still retracts immediately thereafter.
At the time the screen shows the green Optio screen for a split second and then shows an out of focus shot of whatever the camera is pointing at, bef

My Pentax W90 camera won't stop taking pictures when I turn it on. At first, it would take 2 pictures without me pressing the shutter and the screen would get "locked" (no menu or other buttons would do anything). Then, after changing the battery, the camera continually takes pictures until I turn it off. The flash goes off with each picture.
I took it in the ocean with me and I noticed it started while I was snorkeling. I don't think I got anywhere near the 20 foot depth limit. I dried it

Black Screen My camera just stopped showing anything on the screen. When I flip it open like a cellphone would flip open it turns on like it is supposed to but I can't see the subject on the screen.

Can you shoot? battery might be low taking it to "save-power" mode. Try hitting "DISPLAY" to force the LCD screen to show. ...

FORMATTED DISK For some reason, when I turned my camera on tonight, it was on the screen that asks whether or not you want to format the card. I SAID NO! But then it said BUSY .. I panicked and turned it off, thinking that would stop it. Later, I turned it back on and now 340+ precious pics of my grandson at various stages are gone. I feel sick.
Why did this happen and is there any way to recover these? I didn't notice it right away and have taken 4 other pictures (thats why I had the ca

I bought your EX-G1 camera to take on a trip to the Galapagos Islands because it was claimed to be an underwater camera. It worked the first 2 times I went snorkeling with it. The third time, I tried to turn it on, the screen was blank so I surfaced and found the memory card/terminal cover open and the screen was completely filled with water. We let it dry out for 4 days hoping it would start, but one of the guys said the battery was bad. Before going in the water, I always checked the batte

My FE-360 keeps shutting down with the lens stuck out. When you try and turn it on you can hear the lens trying to retract but it stays stuck out and the camera makes a bleeping sound. I have noticed that if i open and close the battery cover whilst it is making this bleeping noise, the screen comes to life. All of the menus can be accessed and options changed but the picture seen on screen is very poor quality and the camera will not take a picture. As soon as you press the capture image butt

I just turned on the camera to take a picture and noticed that the camera was not focusing. I tried changing the setting, turned of the camera and restarted it, removed the battery and put it back in. Nothing I could think of would make the camera focus. The screen only shows blurry and out of focus. The pictures taken by the camera are blurry and out of focus. Any suggestions on how to fix it? Thank You

Camera problem My daughter just received a new HP635 camera for her birthday. At first the camera worked fine, but after a few minutes of use, the camera started flashing the welcome screen repeatedly and the zoom lense would move in and out over and over until we opened the battery storage compartment of the camera. Opening the battery compartment is the only way to turn the camera off. Everything on the camera becomes inoperable when this process starts which now is every time the camera is tu

Lens Error I fell while holding my camera. The lens was open at the time and when I got up I turned the camera off. I then turned it back on to check it and the lens opened and immediately closed with the "lens error" on the screen. I can turn it off and on and the lens will always open but closes as soon as it has opened with the lens error on the screen. The shutter opens but closes also, like the lens. Can this be fixed? It was a gift so I don't have the bill of sale but I still have the orig

My daughter's camera will not turn on. When the power button is pushed the green light flashes on top and the screen shows a message of "lens error". The lens cover is open and the whole lens is zoomed out and will not go back in. Is this expensive to fix or would it be best to buy another camera?

Focusing Problem I have a Casio Exilim 10.1 Mega Pixel Digital Camera EX-s10 and I have had it for a little over a year now. I dropped it in sand and the lens would open then beep then close on its own. It stopped doing that and started working though in about 2 days, but now the focus isn't focusing. When I turn on my camera the image on the screen is blurry. What should I do?

Coolpix L18: The LCD screen is broken; just displays a large black "blob" on a white background. Would this prevent all other camera operations? When the camera is turned on, the green power light flashes, but nothing else seems to work. Camera will "beep" when shutter button is pressed, but lens never opens. Is this a LCD issue, or are there other problems as well?

AF problem Last week I took some pics that needed the flash turned off. I did that and took the pics with no problem. I turned the flash setting back to "auto" afterwards. (this may not be related to the current problem but does seem too much of a coincidence). Next time I went to use the camera, I got an AF(red dot) and a red hand on the screen. It would take one picture and then would be frozen (no zoom, no picture taking, but the screen would stay on). If I turn it back on I can then ta

Is there any way I can get my camera back to normal! I turned it on and it said "focus error". When I shut it off to see if it would start over correctly it would not close the lens. I turned it on and the lens closed and then opened again and wouldn't focus. I turned it off and the lens won't shut. How weird is that? It obviously is capable of opening and closing but seems to be reversed and makes a funny noise when it can't shut at the right time. Can I wiggle or giggle something? I bo

Polaroid Model a815 just bought yesterday: I took pictures with it and turned it off to get another item to photograph. When I turned it back on I got "Card Error" then a screen to Format Card: Cancel/Execute. I could not move to hit the cancel. It would only take Execute. It sat there "Busy" until it timed out. When I turned it back on I was back to the Card Error. I removed the Card and tried a different one. None of the buttons would work, but I still had the Format Screen showing. According

My Nikon coolpix S10 camera was dropped and now the screen only says "lens error". If it is not touched the function returns to normal (has done so twice), but now the screen only say that one message and you can't turn it off or do anything). When it was turned off again and then turned on after a series of clicking noise the screen only said "lens error" and does not allow any other options(even turning off). Any helpful ideas would be apprecited. Thank you!
